Grzech pierworodny w kontekście ewolucyjnego obrazu świata
2021
Modern science portrays the genesis of man as just another link in the chain of evolution - first cosmic and then biological evolution. In such a worldview there is no place for a Garden ofEden or a miraculously innocent couple. Also, violence, suffering and death have accompanied humanity from the very be�ginning. The aim ofthis paper is to show that the Christian doctrine oforiginal sin does not conflict with the scientific worldview, provided, however, that it is properly understood. Within the evolutionary model ofthe world, original sin can be defined as the refusal to take a certain step that at some point should have been taken and that was made possible by Gods call. The failure to …

How important is the role of iterative liver direct surgery in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma for a transplant center located in an area with…
2022
IntroductionHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for nearly 90% of primary liver cancers, with estimates of over 1 million people affected by 2025. We aimed to explore the impacting role of an iterative surgical treatment approach in a cohort of HCC patients within the Milan criteria, associated with clinical risk factors for tumor recurrence (RHCC) after liver transplant (LT) and loco-regional therapies (LRT), as well as liver resection (LR) and/or microwave thermal ablation (MWTA).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed our experience performed during an 8-year period between January 2013 and December 2021 in patients treated for HCC, focusing on describing the impact on preoperative end-st…
Applications of tunnel junctions in low-dimensional nanostructures
2009
This thesis concentrates on studies of AlOx based tunnel junctions and their feasibility for cooling, thermometry and strain sensing in suspended nanostructures. The main result of the thesis is cooling of one dimensional phonon modes of a suspended nanowire with normal metal insulator superconductor (NIS) tunnel junctions. Simultaneous cooling of both electrons and phonons was achieved, and the lowest phonon temperature reached in the system was 42 mK with an initial temperature of 100 mK. In addition, suspended devices show cooling still at a bath temperature of 600 mK. The observed thermal transport characteristics show, that the heat flow is limited by the scattering of phonons at the b…
The (im)possible success of disadvantaged students. Reflections on education, migration and social change
2019
The paper focuses on the ?unexpected pathways? of successful students with an immigrant background: these biographical routes, that seems socially impossible, raise theoretical issues around the individual-society, actor-structure relationship. Disadvantaged students who succeed represent a sociological challenge in the attempt to understand atypical situations and to identify the institutional processes and the structural opportunities that facilitate them, reducing ethnic inequalities in education. This framework is the starting point of the Su.Per. project (Success in educational pathways of students with immigrant background), based on the collection of written autobiographies of 65 imm…
